Info

There are two ways you can program your scanner to operate with CTCSS and DCS. If you know the CTCSS and DCS code that is used on a particular frequency, you can manually enter the code when you are programming the scanner, or any time afterwards. You can also set a special search code up that will decode the CTCSS and DCS code on a received transmission. Channels programmed with the search code will receive all traffic on the channel, and will decode and display any CTCSS or DCS code that is found with the transmission. You can then store the found code in the channel memory with one keystroke. This section of the manual describes the process for configuring a memory channel for CTCSS or DCS operation and manually programming a known code. For more information on using the CTCSS and DCS feature while scanning, see “Using CTCSS and DCS” on Page 28. To program channel memories for CTCSS or DCS operation, follow these steps. 1. First, enter a conventional frequency. See “Storing Known Frequencies into Channels” on Page 14. 2. Once you have entered the frequency, press MODE until the desired mode appears in the upper left hand corner of the display. Use CT for CTCSS, and DC for DCS. 3. By default, the search code (indicated with CT:Search in the bottom of the display) is programmed. To program a specific code, press FUNC, MODE, and then use the arrow keys to scroll to the desired CTCSS or DCS code. You can also use the keypad to enter the code manually. Note that the scanner will automatically fill the code field as you enter the code. 4. Once the desired code is selected, press ENTER to store the code in the channel memory. 5. It is possible to program memory channels for CTCSS or DCS operation at any time. Simply place the scanner in program mode, navigate to the channel you wish to change, and follow the steps above. 6. When stopped on an active conventional channel while scanning, you can press MODE to cycle through the valid modes for that channel, including CTCSS and DCS. This will reset any stored CT or DC code to the search code, allowing you to easily check for other CT or DC codes that may be present on the frequency. 16 Page 16 2004/07/06, 15:37
